Viewport scale field incorrect in 2010

Hi all

I've found that when we changed to AutoCAD 2010 (from 2007) the viewport scale field object type changed from STANDARD SCALE to CENTER.

I know the way to correctly display the viewport scale in 2010 is to set the OBJECT TYPE to CUSTOM SCALE and set the FORMAT to 1:#....

What I'm wondering - is it possible to automate this process?

Thanks

Paul

Hi again

I was thinking that one way could be using -attedit and somehow using the field expression - %%).CustomScale \f "1:%lu2%ct1%qf2816">% - to change the field object type to the correct one of custom scale.
